PF5 PF5 PF5 , come on!

all care of andriasang :



"Blue" version of Guwange announced (?!)


Death Smiles 2 officially announced? I thought this was already known?

"Deathsmiles 2 seems to have some new bosses not in the arcade version."

EOJ

Deathsmiles 2. Not a surprise! Perhaps this will be their next port.

Announce a vert like MMP or DFK, Cave. Come on!

Andriasang is reporting the following details about the DS2 port:

-7 stages total (more than the arcade version)

-Updated graphics
-New bosses

well no complaints there since I'd love to play it...
...just wish it was something we werent all expecting.

so i think earlier Cave announced there would b 4 360 games total in 2010, including physical discs and live, right?

Espgaluda 2
Deathsmiles 2
Guwange
Original Live game

I guess that could be our lineup for the year

EOJ

Looks like the presentations are all over. What a letdown! 5pb doesn't give the title they're working on, Cave announces 2 games we already knew they were going to port, and they didn't announce their new "worldwide X360 exclusive" game, even though Asada previously said they'd announce it by the end of February. Bleh.

The only really neat thing is DS2 will be released May 27th! Makes sense since they plan to finish the game next month.

I agree...

also was there ever any indication that the next 5bp game would be a cave game....or could it be anything?

And did they give a timeframe for guwange or ds2?

yup, glad i didnt trail my tired arse there. was expecting more announcements tbh

May 27th is pretty exciting imo.  With ESPII now, Ketsui April 22, and DS2 May 27 that's a lot of stuff to shmup with honestly.

Let's face it, this is a genre on its last legs and we have 3 console releases within 4 months!

I think quite the contrary on this. After all:

It's nice to be optimistic, and I know this is a forum centered around Cave.  But I can't be the only one missing the frequency and diversity of the Saturn/PS1/PS2 days.

5pb's shooting game is a "Completely original shooting game for the xbox 360". Not a port. Wonder what shooting game programmer/designer refuges they hired for this. Takumi? Raizing? Psikyo?

This will be quite amusing, considering they can't even port shooters. :laugh:

EOJ

You won't say that when you play Ketsui. Recent impressions say it's a great port.

DDPDOJBLEX is solid too. The menus are glitchy and the loads suck, but once you start the actual Black Label game it's almost like playing the PCB. Slowdown is spot on, more than I can say for Espgaluda II!

Isn't that because they had CAVE and Mihara help them? Besides, designing a game that doesn't suck isn't very easy.

As for DOJ, that's Arika's code. :laugh:

EOJ

Sadly Cave couldn't get Cave and Mihara to help them on the Espgaluda II port.
